Medical specialists for seniors are healthcare professionals with expertise in various fields particularly relevant to the health issues commonly experienced by the elderly population. As people age, they often require specialized care to address complex health conditions and the unique challenges of aging. Key medical specialists that seniors might consult include:

  1. Geriatricians:

    • Physicians specializing in the care of older adults, focusing on aging-related conditions and the management of multiple coexisting diseases.
    • Expertise in addressing issues like mobility, memory problems, incontinence, and polypharmacy (use of multiple medications).

    • Specialize in diagnosing and treating heart-related conditions, which are common in seniors, such as heart disease, hypertension, and arrhythmias.

  3. Neurologists:
